GenScript Enterokinase is a highly purified recombinant porcine enterokinase. The enzyme has been extensively purified and tested to ensure that there are no other contaminating proteases. Enterokinase is a specific protease that cleaves after a lysine preceded by four aspartic acids: Asp-Asp-Asp-Asp-Lys. Enterokinase will not cleave, however, if this lysine is followed by a proline. Enterokinase can remove fusion tags is located in the N-terminal section of proteins, useful for removing unwanted tags.
